Email Alias

I wish I had discovered this earlier. Apparently, a lot of email services supports free aliases by just assigning a "+" sign. E.g. email+news@x.com, email+shopping@x.com, email+streaming@x.com all is the same and will share the same inbox as email@x.com.

I finally don't have to create and manage multiple junk email accounts. I can now register multiple accounts on one site essentially using the same email. I can also now figure out which sites that leaks or sells my email address by subscribing with an alias containing the name of the site like email+newssite@x.com. Any mail coming to my inbox thorugh email+newssite@x.com that isn't directly from newssite means that they leaked my address.
